Birmingham City have completed the season-long loan signing of Arsenal midfielder Jon Toral.
It will be the second successive season the 20-year-old has spent in the Championship, having enjoyed a spell with Brentford during the 2014/15 campaign.
He made 37 appearances for the Londoners, scoring six times including a hat-trick in a 4-0 win over Blackpool.
Toral becomes manager Gary Rowett’s sixth signing of the summer following the arrivals of Alex Jones, Jacques Maghoma, Adam Legzdins, Tomasz Kuszczak and Maikel Kieftenbeld at St Andrew’s.
The Spaniard is yet to make a first-team appearance for Arsenal since joining them from Barcelona in 2011.
